   @mattly oh and “catch ‘em all”/completing the Pokédex has always been a competitionist thing. They’re fine playing standalone, I just wanted to explain the gimmick. The choice is mostly Koreidon/past or Miraidon/future, and even then this “paradox region” is end game. Don’t worry about it, go on cover art vibes.

     @mattly The Pokémon franchise depends on pairs of games that have similar Pokémon (but different) in each game to encourage trading between the 2. More people bought Violet, so picking Scarlet will make trades easier. You can get all the monsters no matter which game you have, and the plot is the same.

     @mattly @jason This was the one game pair where I, for the first time ever, picked the more popular of the pair. I actually have a complete dex in both scarlet and violet now, but haven’t completed the expansions yet.
